Star Trek

Full view of a 1970s electro-mechanical playfield photographed under glass in its wooden cabinet, lit warmly. The dominant motif is deep space: a black starfield with white stars and a yellow-white comet streaking up the centre. Across the very top, large yellow block capitals with red outline spell STAR TREK on a red banner. Four cream-white round pop bumper caps with gold star-and-wings emblems cluster in the upper third, surrounded by red, blue and yellow swooping bands. Four painted human figures in gold/yellow uniforms with black detailing sit in triangular blue medallions: two on the upper right and lower right (a dark-haired man in a gold tunic pointing a hand phaser, and a second figure), and two mirrored on the left. Green triangular panels carry yellow lettering about bonus advances, while orange-red panels at the sides carry SPECIAL and score-multiplier lettering. The lower third is a large orange-red apron with a huge flowing script maker's logo, flanked by two white instruction cards and by two illuminated round inserts. Two red triangular flippers point down-and-inward at the centre, separated by a dark round hole. Small black circles numbered 8 down to 1 run in a vertical line up the middle, each labelled THOUSAND.

A photographed electro-mechanical style playfield behind glass, dark charcoal and black with a grimy, worn surface and a big arched plastic ramp dominating the top third. At the top centre sits a large grey-faced grinning head or bust flanked by three translucent red mushroom bumpers arranged in a triangle, with two round pop-bumper caps (one showing a face) to the upper right and a blue globe lamp. Printed artwork on the field shows a hooded, cloaked grim-reaper figure rendered in white line work on a black background, with skeletal hands, scythe shapes and draped cloth; a horned demon head appears left of centre. White printed instruction captions are scattered across the middle ('LIGHTING SCORES ADV.', 'SPECIAL', 'BONUS', '1000'). Down the left and right edges are vertical lane guides with repeated score windows reading 1000, 100, 50 and labels 'when lit', 'ADVANCE BONUS', 'SPECIAL' in red. Two yellow-bordered cream flippers sit at the bottom, either side of a red 'SAME PLAYER SHOOTS AGAIN' starburst, with white 'COLLECT' and 'BONUS' lettering on the apron strip and a row of small circle lamps along the lower-right edge. Under-glass reflections and dust are heavy.

A wide rectangular backglass in a black plastic frame with a grey-blue speckled cabinet edge. Huge italicised block letters across the top read STAR TREK, pale cream-to-yellow gradient with dark outline, split by a chrome-white and pale-blue Enterprise-style starship flying left-to-right in front of a huge mottled yellow-green planet ringed by a band of stars. The background is a deep maroon-to-amber nebula sky with scattered white star specks, over a rocky ochre planet surface along the bottom with jagged purple mountains and a yellow lattice sphere. Four adults in futuristic uniforms stride forward across the centre: three in pale blue-grey jumpsuits with delta insignia belts and collars (one tall blond man centre holding a small grey phaser, one dark-haired man left clutching a rectangular object, one brown-haired man right), and a woman centre-right in a bright yellow mini-dress with black beaded hair, hoop earrings and a small blue handheld device. Far left a fifth figure in a pale blue suit fires a yellow ray at a floating lattice ball. Above him a small orange alien sits cross-legged on a rock playing a horn. Rectangular score windows with black surrounds sit at all four corners labelled 1up, 2up, 3up and 4up in yellow-outlined numerals, plus two small lit windows reading 3 and 0, and a red arrow with MATCH. Bottom left reads 1 TO 4 CAN PLAY. Bottom right carries GAME OVER, a copyright block and an artist signature.

Backglass with a large arched window showing a lone rider on a motorcycle, framed by a black decorative border. The rider is a black-clad, skeleton-faced figure with glowing red eyes and a horned or spiked helmet, sitting astride a fat-tyre black motorcycle; he raises a long-barrelled gun in his raised right hand and a long sword or scabbard hangs at his side. An ornate tan and gold saddle panel with a diamond-lattice pattern sits behind the rear wheel. The background behind the bike is a pale blue-white luminous haze with bright circular light blooms, so the machine reads mostly as a black silhouette. Across the top, huge arched Gothic lettering in red with white and light-blue outline reads the title. Four rectangular windows in the black frame hold blue seven-segment score displays: the top-left and top-right are lit with digits, the two lower ones are unlit. A smaller two-digit insert panel sits at mid-right. The border carries cream-outlined medieval illustrations - a mounted knight at top-left, a winged figure at top-right, a skeleton or grim reaper at bottom-left and a grotesque demon face at bottom-right. Glossy reflections and orange light bloom streak across the glass.
